Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Autotrader Stinks

[LarryT (l02turner]

You might not want to use Autotrader at this point, but I sent them a email 
asking why Ferrari is not listed on the "List For Sale" pull down menu when 
it's listed on the other search menu's.   Will be interesting to see why 
they left it out -

Will let ya'll know what they say.

Sincerely,
